Land Rover Discovery 3 - How many clutches is normal?: Motoring Motoring Discussion forum (http://www.car4play.com/forum/post/index.htm't=1200)

there is plenty of discussion about this on the uk sites.


the gearing is very high for hill starts etc with a bit of a load, i would also recommend using low range when maneuvering etc.

that will ensure early clutch failure for sure, the one i replaced a while back in my opinion is hopelessly undersized for the vehicle in question.
